What does the county require?

Broward sits inside the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, so wind rating is set by code. The permit itself is local, and an HOA architectural review often runs alongside it.

Is Broward the same as Miami-Dade?

For wind load, yes — both counties are inside the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone. For permitting, no: that is administered locally and it is not identical from city to city.

Will it actually fit my driveway?

We measure on site and draw the gate on your entrance before anything is cut.

Swing or slide — which one?

Slope, curb space and where you park decide it. We tell you what the driveway allows.

Steel takes ornamental work and welds hard. Aluminum will not rust and suits long runs. Wrought iron is the traditional answer where the detail matters most. Sun and salt are the design brief in South Florida, so the finish is chosen with the same care as the frame.

Close to open water the gate lives in salt air, so material and coating get specified before styling does — aluminum, or steel that is coated for the exposure rather than for the showroom.

Waterfront and inlet addresses frequently sit under a town or association design guideline of their own, on top of whatever the county requires.

Ask before the steel is ordered

Broward is inside the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, so the wind rating is settled by code rather than by preference. What is not settled by code is the local review — Deerfield Beach handles that itself, and starting it early is the cheapest decision on the whole project.
